I'd appreciate any insight ppl can offer, especially relative to mullvad VPN: could a casual privacy valuer benefit from this over mullvad now or in the future?

Has anyone seen this one listed on VPN comparison sites?

Same:

They take straight monero and generate accounts from no personal info

Pros:

It's something like 1$/device/mo, so sometimes cheaper than mullvad.

Doesn't use gmail or centralized servers like mullvad, argued here; went over my head

Something about improving browser privacy

Cons:

Beta; small project; haven't found credible endorsements

I couldn't see where it was located, but the staff having the Gadsden flag doesn't inspire confidence. I'd pass on it for that reason alone.

their website shouts "scam", but maybe they just have poor taste.

they give a pretty weird answer about audits in their FAQs. I'm not an expert, but I wouldn't trust them compared to Mullvad which I currently use.

Thank you for your reply! Ik what you mean about the site; i hope it's just for normie appeal

If it has not been regularly audited there is really no reason to trust a vpn provider. Wait until they have some proof they do what they say.

Any other VPN than Mullvad VPN is scam /s
